          <by role="member" id="4697">The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Leader of the Opposition) (14:23):</by>  My next question to the Minister for Trade and Investment is: is the minister attending the South by Southwest festival in the United States next week along with the Premier and other staff and officials, and what exactly is the minister contributing to the trip that the Premier, staff or officials can't contribute?</text>

          <by role="member" id="1820">The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY (Minister for Trade and Investment) (14:23):</by>  I thank the honourable member for his question and his interest in the Premier's travel. No, I am not attending the South by Southwest event. I have a range of other appointments and business meetings. The Premier is very capable of representing our state at South by Southwest. We do not need two elected members at that event.</text>
